During his postfight press conference, Covington was adamant that he had won the fight and only lost because the judges were biasef against him because he supports Donald Trumo.
‘I thought I had the win, I thought I did enough but the judges never favor me, they hate me because I support Trump and everybody hates Trump in this building” ‘
